Maximum Entropy based Rule Selection Model for Syntax-based Statistical Machine Translation
This paper proposes a novel maximum entropy based rule selection (MERS) model for syntax-based statistical machine translation (SMT). The MERS model combines local contextual info...

Minimum Bayes-Risk Decoding for Statistical Machine Translation
We present Minimum Bayes-Risk (MBR) decoding for statistical machine translation. This statistical approach aims to minimize expected loss of translation errors under loss functio...

Improving Statistical Machine Translation using Lexicalized Rule Selection
This paper proposes a novel lexicalized approach for rule selection for syntax-based statistical machine translation (SMT). We build maximum entropy (MaxEnt) models which combine ...

Addressing the lack of direct translation resources for cross-language retrieval
Most cross language information retrieval research concentrates on language pairs for which direct, rich, and often multiple translation resources already exist. However, for most...
